Bigelow Tea cares about the environment, the community, and wellness. Our relationship with The Idaho Foodbank hits all three: we re-use boxes, which helps the environment, each box that is used helps feed a hungry person from our community, and we're proud that The Idaho Foodbank focuses on nutrition - a key ingredient in wellness.
In our Offices
Installed "single stream" recycling bins in the cafeteria to collect metal, glass and redeemable items. This allows employees to discard all materials (bottles, cans, papers) into one bin, increasing the amount of materials we recycle.
In 2012, began collecting foil overwrap from tea bags consumed in our plant and office to be recycled for a variety of purposes, such as manufacturing welding rods and brake pads.
Established programs to recycle electronics equipment such as computers and photo copiers.
Recycled disposable batteries and replaced them with rechargeable batteries.
Recycling empty inkjet cartridges and donating to a program called "Funding Factory Cartridge Recycling Program," allowing teachers to use the funds raised by this program to buy computer supplies for the children.
Recycling old sneakers for Nike "Reuse-a-Shoe," a program that creates playing surfaces for underserved communities.
Implemented a program to recycle video tapes. Employees bring old video tapes to work and the tapes are delivered to recycling locations.
Conducted an Electronic Recycling Drive.
Cooking oil from our Fairfield CT Cafeteria is sent to a processing facility in Waterbury, CT where it is converted to biodiesel fuel.
In our Boise office - using PC Recyclers of Boise, for proper disposal of computers, phones and otther electronic equipment.
